The school was lively on the day of the summer festival. Several straw made stalls had been set up on the fields for students to disy their talent or sell products to the guests. A scent of mixed fruits and bakery lingered in the air as many of the students had installed cafes in their stalls to entice customers. Arge makeshift yground was made for children who were running around or skipping on ropes to have fun. Several cotton candy machines were installed along the grounds while the families of the students could also enjoy puppet ys at a small stage.
Inside the school buildings, each ss also had their own presentations. One of the junior sses made a haunted tent for the guests with ck cloth to create a maze. Many of the students dressed in scary costumes to frighten the guests.
But arge number of people had gathered outside one particr ss. Most of the crowd wasprised of girls who were fawning over their idol who was at that ss.
"I can''t believe Minmin is performing!" one girl squealed.
"He''s so cute!"
"I wanna be his wife!"
"He''s only fifteen!"
They were all gushing over Minyoon. Most of them were holding his pictures in the hopes of getting them signed by him. The crowd was blocking the way to the art cafe Minyoon''s ss had set up. But that did not stop their cafe from bing a hit.
Thanks to Minyoon''s performances, people were also buying the dessert and beverages made by the students. They made arge profit within the first hour and money was onlying in.
"Hey, isn''t that Minyoon''s twin brother?" one girl was whispering.
"The brains behind his agency!"
"He could be an idol too with that bad boy look."
Yoonmin was the cashier who weed the guests with a smile. He was meticulous at his job, counting every penny before processing the orders while the students behind him were busy preparing food. Thanks to his systematic nning, no one was being overwhelmed and everything was going smoothly.
Ugh, Yoonmin inwardly groaned. He had deliberately grown his hair and adopted the punk look to deter girls and unnecessary attention but somehow, it only attracted them. Even his weird earring could not keep them away. Only one girl was unaffected by his natural charms…
"Oi everyone!"
Soobin took charge of the crazy fans who instantly recognized her as one of Minyoon''s top fans. She was a known presence in his concerts after all and somehow held dominance over the fans. Yoonmin had no idea how this strange hierarchy worked but the fans seemed to be bowing down at her!
"Remember the rules!" she dered. "No touching nor stalking! Also, no fighting! If I see anyone fighting, I''ll throw you out of the fan club!"
What happened to keeping your identity as the President a secret? Yoonmin wondered but it seemed that Soobin threw away all her hesitation.
"Go and stand in lines!" she ordered. She had a whistle around her neck which she was blowing on to keep the fans in line. The ss had assigned her the post of being the security-in-charge thinking that she could attract more men to the cafe but it turned out that she was quite feisty when it came to controlling the fans.
"Y-Yoonmin!"
He turned around to find Sera standing there, blushing. "What is it, Sera?" he asked in azy tone.
"I can take over the cashier point if you want," she offered timidly. "You''re working too hard."
"I''m fine," he said, returning to his work. Sera was a little hurt by his indifference. He did not notice her feelings at all but was ncing at Soobin every few seconds. She was a little jealous of the attention Soobin received from boys but to catch Yoonmin''s eyes?
Yoonmin was known as the Icy Hwang. He maintained a distance from everything, preferring to talk money and numbers rather than date around. While Minyoon was more open and socialized with everyone, Yoonmin was the aloof, icy one. He was never linked to any girl so it was surprising to see him interested in Soobin.
Sera sadly nced at Soobin. What did she have that I don''t have? She wondered.
"An Americano."
Yoonmin looked up to see a thin boy around his age. His dark hair was covered with a cap and he wore extremely baggy clothes with loose jeans. He had an amorous vibe with smooth fair skin and a deep voice. The boy did not seem to be from their school but there was something off.
"Iced Americano," the boy ordered in a cool tone.
"That''ll be three dors," Yoonmin stated. The boy took out a few notes from his pocket and gave it to him. For a brief moment, their eyes met and Yoonmin peered at the boy. There was something weird...
"Oh!" he realized. The boy gave him a quizzical look but did not say anything. At that very moment, Minyoon came on stage.
"Hi everyone!" He greeted the audience. The boy turned around, sipping the cup as he watched Minyoon. His ash colored eyes were studying Minyoon closely, observing his every move.
"I''ll be performing my famous song, Under the Blue Moon for all of you!" Minyoon dered. He winked at the fans, making them swoon.
He cleared his throat and the room went silent. Then he began to sing.
"The days are strange
I want things to be smooth
But it''s not always easy
I gaze at the Blue Moon
Waiting for the days to end and nights to dawn…"
The fans were now swaying with his music, lost in his heavenly voice. Yoonmin watched Soobin from afar. To his surprise, she also turned to look at him and for a moment, their eyes locked on each other, not moving. Time had stopped for them, the melody of Minyoon''s song ying in the background.
"I see you under the Blue Moon,
Smiling and happy
Washing away my uneasiness
Every night I see you,
Pretty as an angel
Making my heart beat crazily
For you…"
The boy was not swaying to the tune but his eyes were still on Minyoon. He was not there to enjoy the great idol Minyoon; he was there to observe him.
"I know you more now
I know myself too
So let''s keep on meeting
When the night dawns
Under the Blue Moon."
Minyoon ended the song and was met with a roaring apuse. The noise broke Yoonmin and Soobin''s spell and they returned to reality. Soobin smiled and pped for Minyoon, but was blushing because she could still feel Yoonmin''s gaze on her.
He was making her heartbeats go crazy and she did not dare to look at him again. What if she exposed her feelings for him?
Meanwhile, Minyoon was signing autographs for fans when he felt a pair of eyes on him. He nced around to find a thin boy staring at him. The boy was almost as tall at him, probably just a few inches shorter but oozed a strange charisma. Minyoon was a little ufortable by the boy but thetter threw the empty cup of Americano into the bin and walked away.
What was that? He wondered.
The boy did not linger at the festival but went straight towards a car parked outside the school gates. It was a sleek limo owned by BHK Entertainment, the second most powerful idol agency in the country. He got into the back where a grey haired man in his forties was waiting for him.
"How was it, Baek?" the grey haired man asked. "Did you observe Hwang Minyoon''s live performance?"
"I did," Baek replied indifferently. "He''s no good, Jango. Easy to beat."
"Your debut will be fabulous!" Jango eximed. "You''ll see! It''ll be even bigger than Hwang Minyoon''s debut show! And once you start studying at Dalton, he''ll have a littlepetition with thedies."
He winked at Baek who totally ignored him. He stared at the building outside with aplicated look.
Is this really going to work? He wondered.
